On a night where the Miami Heat set a single-game NBA record for most free-throws made without a single miss, Jimmy Butler’s game-winning three-point play — capped by his 23rd made free-throw of the game — with under 11.9 seconds left punctuated the Heat’s 112-111 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night.
Butler’s 23rd made free-throw was Miami’s 40th as a team. He led all scorers with 35 points on 17 shots with seven rebounds, four assists, four steals and three blocks — but his sixth-and-final bucket coming after a pump-fake mere feet from the rim made his night all the more fitting.
